EA FC 24 best controller settings
The below settings are what we believe are the best settings to use in any game mode on EA FC 24. First things first is where you need to go to change these settings.
- Go to the Settings in the top left corner
- Now go to Settings again
- Here you will have the options for customising controls and Game Settings
Customise Controls
First off, with customised controls, you will want to use either Classic or Alternate. They offer the most in-depth options, the only difference is the shoot and cross button is switched depending on what you choose. Alternate is what the PES games traditionally use, and still remains a very popular controller configuration.
